Birthdays, birthdays, birthdays

What a busy couple of weeks! Greyson's party at the Museum of Nature and Science was a blast! We had a Dinosaur party, and the kids got to explore the whole Children's museum.

Mommy tested out her mad Martha skills and put together this fab dinosaur cupcake cake :-). I'm looking forward to many more baking challenges with each birthday.

There were so many things for them to do, and we had such a great time.Greyson was able to test out his milking skills, and he was a pro!They played in the "water table room" made a mess.Greyson did his usual "blowing out the candles" trick....someday he'll do this correctly, I promise.What can I say the kids loves icing....he must get that from his Aunt TammyThey did a dinosaur dig to look for buried bones and artifacts.

It was our first "friend" party, and we are SO thankful for all of the great friends we have made. This was truly a birthday to remember, and I am looking forward to celebrating every year together.

Next up was Hannah Banana's BIG 1st Birthday bash with family. Of course I had to go for something completely nontraditional baby theme with hot pink and zebra print.
We built the theme around an outfit that I found in Canton especially for her birthday. It even had her name on it with extra jewels.Greyson got to open a special present from Great Grandpa at Hannah's party....a big remote control fire truck!
Then came the Blizzard of 2010...over a foot of snow fell here in 24 hours. That's the most snow EVER recorded so it was quite the momentous occasion. Greyson LOVED playing outside, and he even got to build his first snow man. Of course we had to get nice and bundled up before we went out. He got to put on his rain boots for the first time, and they seem to now be a permanent fixture with ALL outfits.
Look at the depth of the snow guys.....that is UNHEARD OF!Greyson and Daddy built snow man in the back yard...
Mommy and Greyson built one in the front...

Snowball making was quite a hit!
And he got right down in the snow and made a special snow angel with NO prompting from me...maybe we live in the wrong place ;-).

Hannah was quite the ham at her 1st year checkup....3 shots, but she was still being goofy as usual!

Greyson's imagination is in full swing, and he told me he was a super hero. This is what we came up with for a costume to fit his character....

And last but certainly not least was a HUGE step for Hannah....check it out! There is no safe place.....Hurricane Hannah has made landfall, and the world is at her fingertips. It's a scary thought, but it's also exciting! Until next time...
